"From the opening Halloweenesque blood-curdle of a scream to the science fiction special effects ending "Creature" thunders down the darkest halls of horror rock. Dizzying guitars swirl over a background grunge while the vocalist shouts as if he is about to commit suicide. By the end they've taken over the world." |

From 1983, one of the early classics. Recorded a few years later in punk rock form under the name "BULLETS FOR PUSSY" -- this is the original creepy electro-horror version. Not for the easily depressed. |

Recorded in 1981 -- this is one of the earliest releases by the band. A gloomy horror rock anthem about a dead girlfriend -- but doesn't that describe just about all of their songs. Actually this one is about stalking and killing a young teen television celebrity. |

This evocative aural epic was recorded live during the winter of 1987 in an alleged haunted "slaughterhouse" (to give it a sense of realism i'm guessing). Released as the b-side of the IN THE ATTIC 7" ep; heard here for the first time in a long long time. |
